I'm sooo glad they went with "Lionel" as the father's name.

I would have been sooooo happy if they had brought in John Glover, he was masterful in that role. But nonetheless it was satisfying for them to keep with Lionel as the Luther Patriarch name.

In the Comics, Lex's father was named Jules at first, then the comics changed it Lionel. The Lex Sr. name in the movies was a cop-out/or way out because of fear of the possible backlash from the fans about Lex's portrayal.

No Jesse played Lex Luthor JR. The film said multiple times that Lex Luthor SR was his father and in the file print that came with the ultimate collection cut BVS they had the Luthor tree and the grandfather was Lionel.

That doesn't even make sense.
